True Christianity?
-
hahaha, just robbed someone's post in another thread to paste here:
The are no true religions today. They have all been corrupted by one sweeping statement: "all humans are depraved".Originally posted by Phaze:In fact, let's say if we were to accept there is a true Christianity, it would probably be Catholicism or the Evangelicals. They have the historical backing or the numbers to support them. -
That might be true, but there is no way to prove it.Originally posted by TheGoodEarth:The are no true religions today. They have all been corrupted by one sweeping statement: "all humans are depraved".
When we die, the conclusion is one of the following:
1. We won't know that there is no religion because there is no afterlife.
2. There is a god and we worshipped the wrong god - then we are screwed.
3. There is God and it's the right God.
The one truth is: we CANNOT COME BACK to warn those who are still living.
I didn't FORGET to lock this thread. At least this is a valid post.
of course, the rights to lock thread remains with the mods..... -

U have no sense of history of the Christian Church and History and u start topics like this?
I have said before. The mainstream Christian Churches believe humans are depraved. Not just depraved. But TOTALLY DEPRAVED.
U are going to let pple laugh again. Thanks for the ratings though. -

1) all man are totally depraved (its part of our "gene")
2) at birth (meaning at the begining), man are born with a clean 'sheet of paper' ..........but got corrupted by the corruptions around them (can remain clean, if the environment around them is 'clean'; not corrupted).

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ. -Mahatma Gandhi
Any one agree with him? -
In the context of the time/place/audience when he made this statement, I can't say he is wrong in his statement...Originally posted by grandeur:I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ. -Mahatma Gandhi
Any one agree with him?
Note: His statement is in regarding to the colonial government in India back then (who are suposingly christians but oppressing the "commoners" and probably some even dishing out injustice and corruptions as well)..

i only know that once ghandi was interested in christianity, then they rejected him because he's an indian, and he swore never to become a christian again.
sad
but he carries the same sentiments.. i like Jesus, He's nice. But its his fan club I don't like

why not? it's the same as saying I like Mohammed but don't like muslims or I like Buddha but not Buddhists.Originally posted by grandeur:I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ. -Mahatma Gandhi
Any one agree with him?
it's just a statement made by someone who happens to be famous. Not that the statement is untrue, at some point, at that time or now.... -
i don't like mohammed. i mean, he didn't really do anything special i guess.. but ghandi is really an example of love. respect to that manOriginally posted by Chin Eng:why not? it's the same as saying I like Mohammed but don't like muslims or I like Buddha but not Buddhists.

Case of bias and prejudice? Anyway, Christ is white man's god. Asians shouldn't just follow blindly! Try to imagine this: if christianity was NOT spread by crusaders, colonialists, missionaries and korean foolhardies, Asians and Afghans would not have heard of angmoh god!Originally posted by dumbdumb!:i agree with ghandi. but i'm not sure when was this said la.

I became Christian without anyone convincing me to be one.
I was anti-Christian and one day became Christian cuz I suddenly understood the bible passages I quoted often to whack unarmed Christians. -

correction... Yeshua is of Jewish Origin, hence should be more towards Middle Eastern...Originally posted by TheGoodEarth:Case of bias and prejudice? Anyway, Christ is white man's god.

however, you are probably right about the gospel being brought here by the colonialists and missionaries. -
